The Spin

Left narrative

Giuliani's pattern of non-compliance demonstrates willful defiance of judicial authority. Despite numerous warnings, he has continued to ignore requests to overturn documents and items. The judge is well within his scope to charge Giuliani with contempt of court as he must ensure justice for the defamed election workers who suffered severe harassment due to false accusations.

Right narrative

This case is a politically driven witch-hunt aimed at punishing Giuliani for his association with Pres.-elect Donald Trump. He has done his best to comply with what has been requested from him, and at each turn has faced unfair judgment. Giuliani is being scapegoated by the Democratic elite who are clearly weaponizing the legal system to target him.
